2025: Thrilling 30 Metroplex reissue Includes Scamper and Botbots Angry Cheese

I'd probably let go of the originals if any new takes were good. They're good to have, but can stand to improve in quite a few ways. I'd even like a smaller Metroplex that has more stuff.

I do wish we'd get something at some point that tries to approximate his hyper colorful watercolor style. That's super busy but in a pretty way.

I love how MASSIVE Cybertron Soundwave looks here. Between the lanky frame and the huge wings and the being made in a time when production budgets went further, he looks amazing. That paired with the distinct aesthetic gives him ancient Thirteen-ish vibes almost next to the more straight-G1...

Ohhhh, no, no. I do NOT need a reason to start collecting this line. I'm already forcing myself to stay away from the GVD/GDV scale, which is kind of putting me in mind of Kre-O (and the line's general ease of customizing)... and of COURSE that's the line where Hot Rod shows up first.

In a weird way, it's kind of like the first three Bay movies shifting aesthetics to AOE and the toyline being in a terrible, budget-crunch position to have to keep up with the sudden streamlined kibble.

The Galaxy Version Defender minis make me crave a Blokees line of Mega Man characters, wh whether in that smaller scale or the regular Blokees size. As long as they hew more faithfully to the aesthetic rather than the awkward stylizing of their MCU stuff, it'd be great. Most of the parts are...

For whatever reason, I can't not think of a Brushguard from this.

...read that again, haha.

First, from nostalgia: I don't have very strong feelings about most of the combiner teams or their members, although a few are remembered fondly because my late uncle (who was somewhat close to my age and who got me into Transformers and GI Joe) would either own or have borrowed some...

That's looking really good, especially after a brief on/off S3 rewatch. And especially especially after seeing some Gigastorm upgrade things online recently. But I really can't with another Titan. I don't even know where I'm going to put Hot Rod's Star Convoy accessory.

I think the toy being a beautifully colored plank mainly denied Rodimus one more redeeming element, but the damage was already done. An amazing toy might have swayed a few but he'll always be a meme as the guy who got Optimus killed, as the Not Optimus. There's certainly some merit to using the...

Oh man, packages now? This shipping is getting out of hand. What, was Draco Malfoy not available

Well, that's the last time I study Cybertronian history from articles in that fanzine by @.NotMyMatrixBearer420.

I think ultimately it was a very powerful demonstration of the significance of IP. The loss and backlash would have demonstrated that too, but their caving really solidified it -- showing that a company would go out of its way to undo something. Especially given the context was before just...

Love the colors. That gunmetal is a bit darker than usual, and it's a good look.

I'm tired, boss.

Yeah, I have the Siege one and think the same. The improvement in color scheme is the main draw. Even the current price of the set seems a solid value, and the lovely colors on Blitzwing are quite tempting.

I just keep telling myself to wait for SS86 Astrotrain, and that's working well enough. But even Starscream looks great.
